do you eat any of the following?
I'm curious if you guys eat pompano, permit and what it taste like. Also are sharks any good? Are the sardines that swim around the bridges the same as the ones in the cans?

Yes on pompano and permit. Pompano are great at any size, permit are good under 15 lbs or so, the bigger ones are tough.
I don't eat sharks but some do, if you keep one to eat, keep a smaller blacktip or a bonnethead, and make sure to take care of the meat properly or it will taste like ass. They don't freeze well, so only keep one if you are having a cookout or planning on feeding a lot of people.
I have no idea about the sardines, I don't eat bait, whether it is swimming in the ocean or in a can

Blacktip on the grill is awesome. Just clean it as soon as you catch it and it will keep much better. Don't put it on ice.

Bad advice. Gut the shark and head it, leave the body intact. Put on ice as soon as you can. Don't leave the shark lay around too long after you catch it. It'll get a smell that will not be able to remove.joenofishhere wrote:Blacktip on the grill is awesome. Just clean it as soon as you catch it and it will keep much better. Don't put it on ice.

I had to try a Pilchard the other day, just to see what some people get so excited about. I scaled and gutted, fried a couple in oil left over from a fish-fry. Actually wasn't bad.

Pomps are great.
Permit, I don't know.
Blacktips & bonnets around 3' or so are excellent fare. We cut the head right off (careful, I got bit about 25 min. after beheading) & hang the body in the water for 15 min. Then, gut & keep cool-cold. When at home, keep the knife sharpener handy. Skin it or steak it. Soak in milk/water for a couple hours & cook any way you can imagine.

Some people build bridges. Some people fish off the bridges. Some people burn their bridges. Others should just be pushed off the bridge.
